When I use the old version of PHP (4.1.2) available from Windows, the gettext functions work perfectly but not when I use any of the 4.2.x versions of PHP. No error messages are given, it seems to me that _() just returns its argument without i18n'ing it.

The 4.1.2 version is bundled with gnu_gettext.dll but 4.2.x is not. Using the 4.1.2 version of that dll in 4.2.x doesn't fix the problem.

I described the problem many times on PHP forums but noone has helped me so I will guess it is a bug.

The problem is resolved. You can download http://ftp.proventum.net/pub/php/win32/temp/php_gettext-4.2.2.zip archive which contains two files. You should replace php_gettext.dll in your php4\extensions dir with the file from the archive and put libintl-1.dll in you \windows\system32 folder.
